Default Barrel Engineering Drawings

A couple of days ago there was a drawing with dimensions of a barrel on the random picture of the day. Where can I get hold of that picture again. Does anyone have engineering drawings for a 12 gauge barrel that parker made. I would need the barrel wall thickness along the entire barrel. Planing on doing some engineering work on this subject while I still have access to expensive programs. If I could do some tests on the materials (fluid steel/damascus) I could settle this whole debate on strength, but that would be impossible without two sets of barrels to sacrifice, so that is out the door as I would not intentionally destroy two sets of barrels. Unless I can find some one who has already done work and has mechanical properties on both materials, but I highly doudbt I will ever find high strain rate dependent properties for damascus steel.
